off topic: ok can ask you guys about the crowds. On every forum and page people are screaming about the crowds. More specifically teens. Im not usually bothered by crowds or the kids but I did notice these whipper snappers were pretty wild this year. Now I go to the event with my wife (5' tall) and my 12 year old daughter (taller than my wife now

. Im 6'5" so not exactly a small guy, so we have it down where I lead the way and follow inline behind me. Like we are about to clear a house. LOL. But man it was definitely crazier this year. I actually had to put my hands on one kid.
It was a group of high school boys, of course they have to congregate in the middle of the walkway. But one kid was like jumping up and trying to like climb on his buddies. He falls and lands right in front of me almost landing on me. His back is to me so he doesnt even know he's about to blast me. So I put my hands under his armpits, pick him up, and literally move him out of the way. The whole group thought it was hilarious. My wife just says "well you handled that better than I thought you would." And it didnt bother me in the least. I was that kid 30 years ago. I get it. But damn groups like that were everywhere.
Now I didnt see anything major with my own eyes, but Im hearing stories and scare actors being messed with and kids sneaking behind the scenes and those type areas. Anyone see anything wild?
on topic: overall I think this was a great year! houses were banging scare zones were better than the last couple years.
